A salt-inhibited cytochrome c reductase obtained from the moderately halophilic bacterium, Micrococcus halodenitrificans.

چکیده
A membrane-bound cytochrome c reductase from Micrococcus halodenitrificans was inhibited by NaCl at concentrations as low as 0.05 m. The inhibition was competitive with respect to cytochrome c and noncompetitive with respect to reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. Thus the effect of NaCl was to increase the apparent K(m) of the enzyme for cytochrome c and not to inhibit the intrinsic activity of the enzyme.

A novel low molecular weight extracellular protease from a moderately halophilic bacterium Salinivibrio sp. strain MS-7: production and biochemical properties
Kinetics of bacterial growth and protease production were monitored on a novel isolated moderately halophilic bacterium, Salinivibrio sp. strain MS-7, and maximum growth and protease activity was achieved after 48 hours at 30°C and 180 rpm. To determine the effect of various carbon sources on protease production, glucose, lactose, sucrose and maltose were investigated and maximum production of...
متن کاملHalophilic nuclease from a moderately halophilic Micrococcus varians.
The moderately halophilic bacterium Micrococcus varians, isolated from soy sauce mash, produced extracellular nuclease when cultivated aerobically in media containing 1 to 4 M NaCl or KCl. The enzyme, purified to an electrophoretically homogeneous state, had both ribonuclease and deoxyribonuclease activities. The nuclease had maximal activity in the presence of 2.9 M NaCl or 2.1 M KCl at 40 C. ...
